My first calf

[Clodhopper]

It never gets old, finding a new calf. I hope the rest are just as smooth.

The first of the season is always so welcome; and the first for you is even better. Sky is right, better get it tagged cuz in 24 hours you will have trouble catching and holding it. Plus if it bellows, you'll have everyone breathing down your neck...LOL

Good for you! Heifer or bull calf?

I wish it'd been a heifer, but I am happy either way.

 

[HDRider]

That's a good start. What kind of bull are you going to use this go round?

I'll keep an Angus bull on them until I match my herd size with my carrying capacity. I will keep buying the Angus plus bred heifers to build up, and retain my own heifers. This little guy will move along when the time comes. I hope he gets nine sisters.

I'll put a polled Hereford on them when I get my herd built. Can't beat a baldy here.

That's my only flat spot. :lol: It was rowed cropped years back. That is a mistake here. Our dirt needs grass on it. It is my Bermuda field now.

All the heifers have mothered that calf, licking and nuzzling it. They all seem to have good mothering instincts. Maybe cause he is the first born. It has been a joy to watch.
